If I used my Big Shot for Thanksgiving, I really needed to step back a holiday and give you a simple treat idea for Halloween! No gluing, no ink, no cutting!
I can't take credit for this idea as it has been floating around SCS, but it was too simple to pass up. Simply use your Big Shot and the Scallop Envelope Die to cut out some Ghostly Greeting designer paper. Place a Ghiradelli Chocolate inside and tie it up with a ribbon. No need to tape the sides. EASY PEASY!!!
Treats this cute deserve a special treat container. I found this adorable trifle bowl at Wal-mart and knew that I would need it for a project. I had a few Chills & Thrills rub-ons left so I decided that this would be the perfect project to combine the two.
I knew that I wanted to use black cardstock around the top, but my cardstock was not long enough to fit all the way around. Instead, I cut the cardstock in half and used it as the perfect opportunity to add some ribbon. As the bowl is slightly slanted in, I only used mini glue dots along the top edge of the cardstock to adhere it to the bowl.
Add some rub-ons to the bowl itself, more ribbon, chocolate treats, and you have the perfect little center piece for a small table next to your front door. If you like treats, check out some owl-fully cute treat holders on Wednesday. Until then....
Be Inspired by Life,
This is too cute! I love how you made the topper for the bowl - very clever!
